Sunday Morning Rides

Choose your adventure with either a leisurely self-guided or small group recovery ride on the Vine Trail with winery stops (special offers below) or tackle the Cols du Calistoga. Both spouses and guests of TdC registrants are welcome to join these group rides at no additional cost. Important: All participants must sign-up in advance due to limited spots.

  • Climb with Sean Bennett: Climb the Cols du Calistoga with former pro cyclist and Team Mike’s Bikes member Sean Bennett. The ride will be a no-drop/”easy” 32-mi route with 3,075′ of climbing across two of the Cols (3 spots left, 9am start).
  • Smash with Matt Accarrino: Join Matt Accarrino, elite cyclist, founder of the Mattina Cycling Club and Michelin-starred chef of SPQR and Mattina on a 21-mile tempo spin through the rolling hills of the valley. (6 spots left, 8:30am start).
  • CLOSED OUT – Cycle with the Vintners – Olabisi Winery: Join Ted Osborne, winemaker and owner of Olabisi Winery on a 30-mile tour through vineyards and up Howell Mountain (2,300′ gain) to get an insider’s perspective on making wine in Napa Valley. The ride finishes at his tasting room (no spots left, 9am start).
  • Recovery Ride with @CyclingJenny: Cycle with her to St Helena on the scenic Vine Trail (8-miles each way) to the Clif Family Winery tasting room.
